9. A method for fastening a liner ring to a support structure apparatus in a downhole tubular string having a tubular axis, the method comprising:
positioning a first contact load surface of the liner ring along a substantially similar contact load surface of a support structure base;
positioning a second contact load surface of the liner ring along a frangible disk in a first position; wherein the liner ring is separated from the frangible disk in a second position where the frangible disk is broken, and
fastening the liner ring to the support structure base via a fastening mechanism;
wherein the fastening mechanism is configured to prevent movement of the liner ring relative to the support structure base.
